What our clients are saying about us

“Cora has guided our firm through the Department of Labor and Immigration processes with great success. Her willingness to listen to our needs and her guidance in developing a plan of action with manageable deadlines was invaluable to our firm’s international talent search. The many layers of immigration statuses and required checkpoints can be daunting, yet Cora dissected the processes and potential outcomes for us clearly and precisely. With her expert guidance and detailed counsel, we were able to make fully informed decisions that were coherent with our goals.”

Russell, Vice President Operations, Occasions

“Since my first interview with Dr. Tekach, I felt that she would take care of my Green Card application with professionalism and competence. In fact, I selected her as my lawyer due to her long experience with green card applications for Exceptional Ability Researcher/National Interest Waivers. During the whole process, she was always available to discuss all steps and options, review reference letters and all government forms. She was very meticulous with the documents, which guaranteed that the final application package did not have mistakes or missing information. My application was successful and expeditiously approved within my expected timeline.”

Milton, Exceptional Ability/National Interest Waiver Immunologist

“My Company has been working with Cora for over 9 years. We began working with her while she was with another DC area law firm. When Cora started her own firm, we continued to work with her exclusively. Working with Cora is always a positive experience as she routinely goes above and beyond what is required of her. She takes the time needed to fully explain a situation/process to me so that I am fully aware of what outcome to expect. Cora is honest, reliable and realistic when providing legal guidance and I can’t imagine using another attorney for our immigration needs.”

Lee, Human Resources Lead, AURA/Space Telescope Science Institute

“Truly, I’ve been depending on Cora’s expert knowledge and her experience for many years. Initially, my employer hired Cora to work with my very complex L-1 application, a more “specialized” form, and she helped me successfully navigate through the process. Naturally, when I was in a position to apply for my permanent residence many years later, I sought her counsel. While the entire immigration process can often feel cold and impersonal, Cora understands that it’s all in the attention to details. For as long as I have known her, she has been very informative, dependable and understanding of my personal situation. Given her excellent track record, both my wife and I are happy to have her work on my wife’s I-130 petition and my citizenship application because we know that we can expect not only excellent results but professionalism along the way.”

Bader, Business Entrepreneur

“When I was applying for my US permanent residence several years ago, I selected Cora to be my attorney. Though the university that employs me was sponsoring my application and encouraged me to use one of their attorneys, I preferred to have complete control in terms of my application and so I wanted to select my own lawyer. I was fortunate enough to find Cora who did part of my application pro bono. Frankly, applications for university professors require what I would call “special handling” and many immigration lawyers are not familiar with the process; Cora, however, is an experienced immigration lawyer who is more than willing to take on unique cases like mine. Throughout the process, she paid attention to the smallest details, had patience, provided timely advice, and followed up quickly when needed. Now that it is time for me to apply for my US citizenship, I entrusted Cora again with my application, a testament to the amount of confidence I have in her abilities.”

Marta, University Professor

“After our immigration case had been shuttled around and ignored by a larger firm, we hired Cora to give us the personal attention we so desperately needed. Immediately, Cora, a seasoned professional, took charge and tackled issues unique to our case, almost effortlessly. Frankly, the entire immigration process is nerve-wracking, but Cora was able to smooth out the bumps with her polished professionalism and guide us down the path to a successful resolution. On the day of our hearing, Cora made certain we were completely prepared well in advance. And even though we were nervous she made the process comfortable — she even brought fruit!”
